“You see, this is why I don’t have a boyfriend,” laughs Passion Café creator Lana Love with a wry smile, as she ushers us into her kitchen to show off potentially the island’s biggest personal stash of supplements, vitamins, minerals, powders and health related goodies, but little evidence of ‘real’ food. Upon further inspection of the hundreds of magnets adorning her fridge and reading the mugs lining the shelves, it quickly becomes clear that the brains, beauty and boss behind the island’s most successful café and healthy eating concept is a self-made, savvy, switched-on chica whose tongue is firmly in cheek.

So you want to redesign your Ibiza garden in time for next summer? Due to the tough nature of the earth and water here in the Balearics, it’s not as simple as popping into your local garden centre for a few new plants… rather, the process requires analysis, testing and meticulous planning. So who you gonna call? The experts of course, E+B Paisajismo! Continue reading →

Ibiza living specialists Lotus – found on the road to Santa Eulalia from Ibiza – are renowned for their stylish decor, amazing selection of beds, bedding and furniture. But perhaps not as well known about the showroom – but every bit as impressive – is the bespoke fabric corner, where Ibiza dwellers and villa owners can customise their own soft furnishings, upholstery and even wallpaper with an array of fabrics in all colours, patterns, styles and textures by designer names including Designers Guild, Christian Lacroix, Lamadrid and Osborne & Little among others. The in-house team have the know-how to make your design dreams come to life, and fast-turnaround times (depending on fabric availability and the size of the order) mean your home will be transformed in time for summer!

Very few traditional Ibicenco fincas (farmhouses, or peasant dwellings) have been left untouched in Ibiza, as investors, architects and constructors have snapped them up to transform into super villas over the past few years. Can Bassó is a simply stunning exception, a project orchestrated by Belgian property expert Francisco Dimmers alongside architect Amélia Molina from Ibiza, with utmost love, care and respect to the design and building traditions of yesteryear, subtly fused with high-end elements of contemporary minimalist living.

Baby it’s cold outside… but believe us, it’s already time to start thinking about the warmth ahead. The time is now to start decorating your Ibiza villa, house or apartment to ensure you’ve got every last detail covered before the beginning of the 2015 summer season (kicking off at Easter on April 5) – and when it comes to furniture and accessories, your first port of call should be TANIS Ibiza.

Time for a new table? Ibiza furniture store Magazin Ibiza is your one-stop shop for finding ‘the one’. Working closely with a unique, family-run business hidden in the heart of the woods in Poland called Lobos, the scope for creating a table to suit your space, colour palette and style is endless.

High quality wood is the heart of the collection – then you decide if you want a six, eight or even 14-seater dining table. Magazin has a selection of wooden sample boards in the showroom, so you can touch, see and feel your way to the right creation. Walnut and oak are the most popular choices, although cherry and elmwood are also available, and a variety of finishes, from simple and sleek to wild, brushed and rough (showcasing the wood’s natural knots, streaks and stains) can be selected.

Very accessibly priced, tables can be delivered within three months of the order date… meaning now is the perfect time to order before summer.

Step inside the interiors haven of TANIS Ibiza, and you could almost be forgiven for bypassing the rolls of fabric and samples lining the walls – after all, the furniture and décor within is so chic and stylish, it’s easy to fall in love at first sight. However… look beyond the collections and chat to owners Tatjana Berger-Sandhofer and Nick Lording and you’ll learn that TANIS Ibiza can create any kind of soft furnishings you can dream of.

This time last year, Gray Gillot of Amber Developmentswas contracted to work on the design, development and project management of a completely dilapidated, uninhabitable, small 200-year old finca in the island’s northern countryside, given the task to increase the property size while respecting the architectural style of the original house. And of course, to make it completely liveable for its new owners! Continue reading →
